Altus Press has had some awesome reprints recently (vol. 2 of Race Williams being at the top of my list) and I just got an e-mail from them that Dusty Ayres #1 (Black Lightning) is available now: link I love those old covers, it'd be great if someone on Shapewys could come up with all those fictional pulp a/c from the covers. I statted a bunch up for Crimson Skies back in distant past, but never had models for them, had to use counters.

Unless I didn't see it, they could double their profits by offering some nice posters of the cover(s) they reprint!

Yes, I haven't seen them either, though I suspect there are other sources around. They do offer t-shirts, but just of magazine branding, not the illustrations.

I just dropped them a line and proposed they look into it, can't hoit!

Apparently I never throw anything out, so I'm sure there in a back filing cabinet somewhere, I'll see what I can do this weekend Will.
